Just for clarity, I didn't post that to take a shot at NY. It's just funny.

Lobs is a clown even considering some of his correct takes.

It is, and no it's not a shot taken by you but you definitely went ahead and aired it out 😆

good for Trey. Nice little pay bump.

Would be lying if I said I wasn't surprised.

Damn it, I thought the 49ers restructured Nick Bosa to sign Trey.

It's interesting... Mike McDaniel was one of the first coaches to spend a lot of time with Trey as his "OC" in 2021... had alot to say about him back then. Used him well in that Texans game.

Mike McDaniel leaves that next season to coach the Dolphins, Trey is the starter of the 9ers. Kyle desides to use him as a battering ram, and Trey lasts a 1 game and 2 drives before he's injured for the year.

So Mike was "stuck" with him back then, as Trey was invested in. This time Mike wasn't stuck with Trey. He had a chance to bring someone else in... maybe a QB he worked with in Miami... or another former 9er QB...

But nope, he... along with Jimbo, trusts Trey to keep the Chargers season alive if Herbert gets injured. Says a lot.

Chargers season should be fun to watch with Roman not there anymore. Imo, Jimbo will keep McDaniel grounded.. will bring out the best in him.

Kind of happy that Lance is still going. Under other circumstances I think he could have made it here.

True and false. If not Trey who else could they have signed? McDaniel certainly isn't going to advocate for Tua. Given the circumstances, its bringing a familiar guy in as QB 2, ten days into the free agency period. A signing this deep into the free agency period says you are the best of what's left.

think you might be reading a little too much into this.

Here's how it went down:

Harbs: we are 1 week into into free agency and we don't have a backup QB. No one has picked up our backup from last year. Do you want to get him since he's familiar with what we ran last year and what you want to run?

Mike: Sure

Harbs: ok lets resign him

Plus Mike McDaniel could have signed Trey Lance last year as a free agent but chose not to.
